"X doesn't like X because they are jealous" is honestly the most redundant argument ever. People like things and people don't like things. The things that they don't like can't all be chalked up to jealousy, that doesn't make sense. It's an easy argument to throw around, but it's unlikely to be true in most cases.

This really.
I just don't like Emmure's music, plain and simple. Wow, what a concept :lol:
I'm not a deathcore hater by any means either, I have some genuine love for quite a few deathcore albums, but none of Emmure's work rock my boat at all :shrug:

I disagree, obviously. Everyone I've met who talks shit about Emmure, are just musicians who think their way is the only way.

Music wouldn't be so diverse if we weren't all a little different. I just hate shit talkers, when they have nothing to back it up.

@Harry - See, no issue with that. I never said anything about not liking, I said the shit talkers. All the internet tough guys and shit lol.

Internet tough guy is not your personal army.

I love songs about video games. Especially metal songs about video games. I just have to make that known. Check this out:



And even better, a song about the game for which they are named:

Who is going to be the one to tell them what those metal strips on the fingerboard do? To which they'll reply "Why is it called a fingerboard?". :lol:

I agree the production is good but only for what it is.

Okay I'm done with the jokes :lol:

Im 26, and i think they are fucking awesome.

Just because its not the most ultra tech using all 7 strings at once doesnt mean it cant be good, just look at the deftones, simple and awesome.
Emmure groove hard, and although on paper their "formula" may seem simple, they actually pull it off in a really tasteful way imo.
Plus they sound fucking huge and ultra tight live, but its funny, they are cool to hate, and so people bandwagon, oh well...

I'm wondering how much the fact that you toured with them has to do with you "liking" them...

I don't like them because I find their music to be mind numbingly boring & cliche and their lyrics extremely childish & unintelligent.... not because they're "cool to hate"...

I was gonna post this in the thread with the first teaser we got, but I felt it deserved its own. Hopefully you Mods agree!

Anyway, I can't wait! I truly enjoyed everything I heard in this preview.

Teaser approved. I merely tolerated their other releases but this sounds like something I can actually get into. :yesway:

I'm still waiting for them to get their own identity in music like whitechapel has. We'll see if this one is the album where that happens.

The production on this is insane. Who did it? You know it sounds good when a non-fan compliments that.

:EDIT: Nevermind. Sturgis did it. Probably the only thing I like tonewise from him.
